Publix Heiress Gave $200K To Third January 6th Group

Citizens For Ethics reports:

Julie Jenkins Fancelli, heiress to the Publix supermarkets chain and a Trump political donor, contributed $200,000 to a nonprofit apparently involved in organizing the January 6 “Stop the Steal” rally that preceded the insurrection at the Capitol, according to a tax document obtained by CREW. Fancelli’s contribution to the State Tea Party Express is the third known donation Fancelli made to a group involved in the rally.

The week before the rally took place, she gave roughly $150,000 to the Rule of Law Defense Fund, which paid for robocalls urging “patriots like you” to attend the event and “call on Congress to stop the steal.” That same day, she gave about $300,000 to Women for America First, which helped fund event costs. Fancelli’s contribution to the State Tea Party Express emphasizes her role as a major source of funding behind the proceedings on January 6.
